showing of Clytemnestra

I really enjoyed how the ballet was set up.  The prologue provides an outline for the audiences to get a heads up on whats going on, while the first and second acts provide the full story. I felt that this set up would be beneficial to people who came in not knowing the story.  I also liked how time was used - it allowed the viewers to relate to Clyemnestra on a personal level because you felt as if you experienced the events the same way she did.

If anyone is interested in the characters this is a great website that gives a brief life story of basically any person ever mentioned in greek mythology, ( all the names are in the left hand column )
